TAKE ON A FRACTIONAL CMO AND
Avoid the marketing risks

You Don't See

Marketing and advertising campaigns often fail because of undiscovered risks with your marketing strategies. We help reveal the marketing risks you don’t see before campaigns fail.

First Look – Let us take a look at your campaigns.

Ask yourself,

Do your internal or external marketing teams pursue “your campaigns” ahead of discovering the information supporting the success of your campaign?

Internal Teams

Those inside your organization responsible for your marketing initiatives generally have limited knowledge and time to discover vital information, that when combined with deadlines, swiftly move them to implementation ahead of the research needed to help ensure success.

External Teams

The vast majority of marketing and advertising agencies utilize systematized campaign execution processes, ahead of doing the work necessary to avoid marketing risks before implementation. They do this primarily to maximize margins.

Bottomline

Salesmanship or even the best of intentions are insufficient to overcome the historical and likely failure of 50% of marketing and advertising initiatives.

We Offer

Benjamin Franklin said, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” From a marketing perspective, “an ounce of prevention saves thousands of wasted advertising dollars.” We offer an alternative to the typical approach for marketing and advertising. Based on a thorough review of your campaign expectations, agency capabilities, and investment requirements, we help reveal marketing risks prior to launching your marketing initiatives.
